Bahrain Grand Prix2020 · Race team radio

EngineerTwo, one, green light.

EngineerRadio is good. Loud and clear. Start feedback. Clutch on target.

EngineerAnd Carlos Wind measured looking very light, slight tailwind into Turn 8.

Esteban OCONThe mirrors are very shaky, just to make sure they don't fall off.

EngineerPrompting adjustment, question?

Max VERSTAPPENNo, leave it like this for the moment.

EngineerUnderstood, so straight through the pillow.

EngineerDo you need any adjustments?

Daniel RICCIARDOYep, radio is good, no adjustments, all OK. Copy that.

Max VERSTAPPENI don't know why, but I have this yellow and red light on the left side of my dash, and it doesn't want to go off.

EngineerStandby. Is that clear now?

Max VERSTAPPENNo, it's related to my brake balance map. Instead of just turning on the red light on the top right, it's now using a yellow and a red light.

EngineerUnderstood, thank you.

EngineerOk, if possible, no movement to the clutch, we are a little bit on the high side So if possible, try to roll to the practice start box

Pierre GASLYYeah, I'll try Balance is quite stable, just understeer 11, between 13 as well

EngineerYeah, copy that, I'll do it

EngineerNo by-point.

Antonio GIOVINAZZICopy. Some vibration on the bridge.

EngineerCopy.

EngineerThat's 16k tailwind into eight tailwind into eight

EngineerAnd Lando, we will drive to the grid, we will drive to the grid this time, please confirm.

Lando NORRISYeah, I confirm.

EngineerUnderstood.

EngineerOkay George, that's good. So we can call the car now, please call the car. And go to the grid.

George RUSSELLCopy.

George RUSSELLThere was something a bit strange on the dash with GOAT in-lap that it seemed like the front right tyre temp was showing next to the gear selection rather than in the top right of the corner. Obviously no biggie but just something I've never seen before. No issues with the car, balance was good.

EngineerCopy.

George RUSSELLWhoa whoa whoa, front right, busy,

Engineercould you please advise James and break balance for the formation lap?

Max VERSTAPPENI don't know why, but I have this yellow and red light on the left side of my dash, and it doesn't want to go off.

EngineerStandby. Is that clear now?

Max VERSTAPPENNo, it's related to my brake balance map. Instead of just turning on the red light on the top right, it's now using a yellow and a red light.

EngineerUnderstood, thank you.

EngineerI'm happy with the 4.4 turn, 11, 13, like you did on your last lap.

Sergio PEREZYeah, I agree.

EngineerAlex, can you check your drinks please, just while you're reconnected?

EngineerSo, you know what we've done with the front wing. Body switches are set. We're suggesting to use the pull toggle for the start of the race, but I haven't turned that on yet. So you're in V-BAL 3, you need an offset minus 1, but we suggest pull toggle for the race start. As I said, I haven't put that on. And then once we get into it, turn the pull toggle off when you wish, and then we'll end up getting a couple of clicks forwards on the offset. This start here from this position.

EngineerSo, you know what we've done with the front wing.

EngineerLet's give them a fight today Yep,

Daniel RICCIARDOone of three guys Let's go Let's pressure these ****ers till the end

EngineerRed flag, red flag! Follow

Pierre GASLYthe reference!

Lance STROLLI went off a little bit into turn 2. Copy that. So check under the car.

EngineerCopy that, we'll check under the car and check the tyres. OK Lance, so we have got floor damage, so we're doing what we can to repair that.

Lando NORRISI've got add contact, check everything.

EngineerUnderstood.

Lando NORRISI've got sparks, something's happened. I've got rank damage maybe. Understood, we're on it. I don't know what I was going to do. It's cool mate, don't worry. Just idiots these guys.

EngineerRed flag, red flag, red flag, red flag, red flag, slow down please. Red flag, red flag, drive directly to the pits, do not stop in the box, stay in the fast lane and park in the order you arrive. Leave a five metre gap to the car in front. Recharge on please, recharge on. Red flag, red flag, drive directly to the pits, do not stop in the box, stay in the fast lane and park in the order you arrive. leave a 5m gap to the car in front Yeah, it's a shunt exit turn 3 mate Grosjean shunted exit turn 3 no information on it yet it looked pretty big

Alexander ALBONHas he got out?

EngineerUnsure yet, not sure OK, so into the pit lane please into the pit lane OK Alex, so remember leave a gap to the car ahead please 5m gap to the car ahead Alex, if you can hear me Grosjean's out of the car looks a bit shaken up but he's OK

Charles LECLERCThis was a big one, this was a big one. Is he OK?

EngineerI will come back to you.

Charles LECLERCI've seen it in the mirrors. Who is it?

EngineerIt's Grosjean. Still no information, I will let you know.

Charles LECLERCNo, please.

EngineerAnd we will go through the pit lane and we will stop in the pit lane and please try to keep a gap to the car in front.

Charles LECLERCStill no information? Still

Engineerno information.

EngineerAlright, ready to check. Copy. So, restart time being announced 10 minutes from now.

Valtteri BOTTASSo, effectively, where we leave from here, that's the formation lap, and then we just go to the grid.

EngineerSo, Valtteri, apparently you are P4 on the grid now, the point they decided to form the grid. I'll see how they're going to rearrange the car to achieve that. So, once you pull away behind the safety car, you take your position then. Then we went up half a turn, and the track temp dropped an odd degree.

George RUSSELLI've got the VSC going crazy in my ear.

EngineerCopy, radio check. Can you hear me? Yeah, fine, alright, let me sort that. Can

George RUSSELLI turn my earplugs out? Just

Engineergoing mental. Yeah, copy.

EngineerOkay, just got a bit of news for you that's just come through, so they've done the red flag count back to SC line 2 So that means that we're P5, Bottas is in front of us on the grid, okay? Yeah, that's just a new bit of information, so Bottas will come through in front of Picardo and you on the formation lap, alright?

EngineerSo they decided the position at the safety car line

Charles LECLERCthat

Engineerfor them was the most sensible point to decide the starting grid again And on the grid will be on the right and it will be right behind Sebastian On the left you'll have Stroll

EngineerOK, so after that do the formation lap, so you will have to give places to Bottas behind you, he will overtake you. You will start P6 again, so same slot as before on the right hand side.

Lando NORRISAnd just to confirm, I overtake these two cars in front of me, before the line?

EngineerThat's correct. We're going to overtake Ocon, and we're going to overtake Gasly, and then we're going to hold position behind Ricciardo.

EngineerWhat is Norris doing?

Esteban OCONGuys, can you hear me?

EngineerYes, go ahead. What position am I in? Because Norris just passed me. You are P8, Norris is P7, Daniel is P6. So as I said, on the grid you'll have Daniel right in front of you and Norris to your right ahead of you.

Carlos SAINZYeah, just one question, are the positions okay?

EngineerYeah, Carlos, you should assume your start position during the formation lap.

Carlos SAINZThere's people doing weird things.

Charles LECLERCHonestly, I don't know who's braking like this, but it's very dangerous. Anyway, OK, go straight to the grid.

EngineerSo, the Stappan car behind.

Lance STROLLOK, I'm hanging upside down. Are

Engineeryou OK? Are you OK?

Lance STROLLYeah, I'm OK.

EngineerSo we're as state alpha so you're okay you can get out if you can do switch it completely off Switch the car all the way off Was you hit lance was you hit from behind?

Sebastian VETTELNot again. I mean, you can't just do that as if I wasn't there. It's the same as Austria, seriously. This time I, you know, I should have crashed. Maybe it was the better option.

EngineerUnderstood.

EngineerSo, we think we have a puncture from right, diff mid 12. Ok,

Valtteri BOTTASI had no contact.

EngineerSir, Marshall's working around turn 8, check it.

Sergio PEREZIt's Lance, how's the car?

EngineerYes, check it, he's out, he's all OK.

Sebastian VETTELNot again. I mean, you can't just do that as if I wasn't there. It's the same as Austria, seriously. This time I, you know, I should have crashed. Maybe it was the better option.

EngineerUnderstood.

Sebastian VETTELAll morning we talk about giving room and then going to the tiniest gap that doesn't exist and you just pray that the other guy just sees you and moves out of the way.

EngineerI

Kimi RAIKKONENhave somebody looking over the big wall. I will come close to the big wall. Yeah,

EngineerI have Mark to work on it.

EngineerF***,

Carlos SAINZwhat a race!

EngineerThank God he's okay.

Carlos SAINZRepeat I was focused on the Stroll car. F***ing hell what a race. Thank god he's okay.

EngineerYeah he's okay, he's out the car. So the car immediately in front of you is Gasly. Gasly is on new hard. All cars in front of him are on used medium. So you have Lando P6, Ocon P7, Leclerc P8, Ricciardo P9, Gasly P10. Behind you is Kvyat. Kvyat is on used soft.

Max VERSTAPPENVigis, quite an eventful race so far.

EngineerSo the crane is taking the car off, maybe one or two laps and we can start.

EngineerOk Pierre, we are revising what we will do. We are revising everything. Make sure we make these tyres last as long as you can. Please confirm. The two cars behind you are on option. They are not going to go very far. So if you lose a couple of positions, keep the head down, keep the head down.

EngineerGot us, bought us behind, just pitted for hard.

Sebastian VETTELOK, next time you let me know if somebody boxes.

EngineerBut it looks like you picked some debris between three and four on that tire properly from the shunt

EngineerIs he okay again? He's okay. Yes, he's out of the car

EngineerStill

Lewis HAMILTONhave this split, should I work them harder?

EngineerI think we're okay where they are, don't want to get them too hot, they're pretty warm at the moment. Definitely

Lewis HAMILTONfeel like a separation in braking.

Carlos SAINZyeah the one stop keeps getting easier just ready now

Kimi RAIKKONENWhich Williams is behind me? Latifi.

EngineerLatifi. He's getting very close, yeah. Yeah,

Kimi RAIKKONENhe almost

Engineerhit me twice already. Yeah, copy that.

EngineerOkay, safety cars in this lap, safety cars in this lap.

EngineerMode push mode push and reset funk

EngineerMode 7, mode 7, we do it in turn 1. Ok, abort driver swap, abort driver swap, keep pushing.

EngineerWe need to look after these tyres, we're going for a different strategy.

Kimi RAIKKONENDo I have a puncher on the rear? What the f***

Engineeris happening? Negative, negative. Everything okay.

Kimi RAIKKONENSomething is on the right on the rear, that's

Engineerfor sure. OK copy, we keep having a look.

Kimi RAIKKONENI'm thinking it's on the right, on the rear, that's

Engineerfor sure. Ok, copy. Ok, we keep having a look.

EngineerOkay Kevin, we need more lifting coast than that, we're very hot.

Max VERSTAPPENMy car is jumping around like a kangaroo, I swear.

EngineerHow was the balance?

Daniel RICCIARDOEven deck across both axles Ok,

Engineercopy

EngineerOkay, be more careful with rear slip out of turn 13 this time, please.

EngineerGood job Carlos, good job. Now let's look after the tyres. This is not going to help the tyres.

Carlos SAINZOh, tricky. Let's angle in there a bit.

Lewis HAMILTONDeseret, drop in

EngineerCopy Lewis, so currently target plus 4, target plus 4, about to start lap 14

Max VERSTAPPENI am familiar with the details.

EngineerUnderstood, thanks.

EngineerStrat 10, position 2, when you can, it's not urgent, Strat 10, position 2.

EngineerStrat 10

Alexander ALBONTom, something in between them two.

EngineerUnderstood, we are looking.

Alexander ALBONTom, something in between them two.

Alexander ALBONTom, something in between them two.

EngineerUnderstood, we're looking.

EngineerLando, you sound fairly chilled. How are the tyres? How are the tyres?

Lando NORRISYeah, R3 rear. Front's fine.

EngineerUnderstood, Lando. From here, looking good. Little bit of lift and coast for tyres. Lyco for tyres.

EngineerOk Carlos, Ricciardo pitted, how's the tyre?

Carlos SAINZYeah, no more than, two

Engineeror

Carlos SAINZthree laps.

EngineerCopy.

EngineerOkay, gap behind to Norris now six seconds. Any change in the tyres? Question?

Alexander ALBONFronts

Engineerare

Alexander ALBONgoing off.

Max VERSTAPPENI hit the DHR board, can you check my wing?

EngineerYep, we'll have a look. Right hand side, confirm?

Max VERSTAPPENYep.

EngineerI

Max VERSTAPPENthink it's OK, man.

EngineerCopy. I'll get back to you.

Max VERSTAPPENI'm really struggling with my group here.

EngineerUnderstood, Max.

Carlos SAINZHow is it possible that these guys are beating me for me?

EngineerOK, can you box, box, box? You see? Box, box, box. You see what happens in 11, OK? Yeah, we see it. So box, we're changing the front wing. And we go to hard, I'm going minus 2.

EngineerI box, Alex box, box this lap.

Carlos SAINZThis is very good.

EngineerYeah, great pace, mate. Great pace.

Sebastian VETTELOK, to state that the grip is low would be failing quite a bit. I don't know, this car has nothing to do with the tyre that I drove the last two days.

Sebastian VETTELI don't know, this car has nothing to do with the tyre that I drove the last two days.

Max VERSTAPPENI guess we're going to try and continue.

EngineerNo, get your head down.

Sebastian VETTELI'm happy to change tyres, there's nothing with these tyres I can do

EngineerUnderstood

EngineerCarlos, we boxed this lap, use the tyre.

Carlos SAINZCopy, where do we come out?

EngineerOK Jo, Esteban, we need to push, we need to push.

Lewis HAMILTONWhat time is it? What tyre is he on?

EngineerStepping on the hard tyre

Max VERSTAPPENYeah, we have nothing to lose here, so just go full centre.

EngineerCopy.

Engineerso if you can pass them let's do it just don't ruin the tires doing it

Kimi RAIKKONENDo we stick to the plan that we did before?

EngineerYes, affirm, affirm.

EngineerSo just feedback from that first in match. Just think about your trade between six and seven.

Max VERSTAPPENI didn't have the group to change that line there. I would be just drifting.

EngineerUnderstood.

Max VERSTAPPENHow much did I catch?

Carlos SAINZLet me know when it's time to put another lap of bringing the tires in, yeah? Yeah,

Engineerthat's good. So Ricciardo did a very hard out lap and both Renaults have already overtaken four cars.

Carlos SAINZLet me know when it's time to put another lap of bringing the tires in, yeah?

EngineerYeah, that's good.

EngineerOk Pierre, we can try to push a bit harder, we want to see how much space we can get, we need to try to push a bit harder now.

Carlos SAINZScotty, subject over balance at this time

EngineerCopy

Max VERSTAPPENI'm actually going to catch the Lewis and I'll stop.

EngineerLewis 33.3, Eura 33.7

Carlos SAINZI think it's time to go hunting.

EngineerNo problem.

EngineerSo check it out, Verstappen is one second faster, we're not really racing him, we're happy for you to push the tyres in a lower speed, but still a little bit of management in a high speed as you're doing.

EngineerAnd get to the stop in 4.3

EngineerFronts,

Daniel RICCIARDOfronts in traffic Understood

EngineerOK Kimi, Antonio has DRS for you now.

Kimi RAIKKONENYeah, I don't believe there's cloud damage, as you said, because it's the way everything disappears sometimes completely.

EngineerCopy, copy, stand by, I'll come back to you.

EngineerOkay Lando, Carlos is now the car behind you. We are basically on the same race as him to the end.

Carlos SAINZWhat is Lando's pace?

EngineerLando last lap 1.35.4

EngineerLewis is using a lot more of the track on the exit at turn 4, Max.

EngineerOK Kimi, we can see some floor damage now, it's getting a bit worse and we would like to swap the cars at turn 1 please

Kimi RAIKKONENYes, if I make it, it's close to me OK,

Engineercopy that

EngineerSo you're much quicker than Russell and Kia, they keep pushing now, both on hard.

Daniel RICCIARDOWhy are we racing each other? I think we need to do something.

EngineerKimi, your overall damage is around 10 points at the moment, but degrading. Yeah, I don't know what... I

Kimi RAIKKONENdon't know what happened on the... I just lost pitch and then it came back on this step. No, no, take it straight.

EngineerIt's almost like I lost power and then it suddenly came back. Ah, yeah, I see, I see. Okay, we investigate.

EngineerDunning, keep pushing, this is our race, keep pushing on this tyre.

EngineerOK, what's Lando's pace? Just to control my pace. Lando 135.2 last lap. Gap is 4.1.

Carlos SAINZIs he hard or medium?

EngineerLando's also medium, his last lap 1.35.2, gap 3.9, just keep this pace is good Carlos, you don't need more than that.

Engineerokay Lando currently thinking target plus three to target plus five gap to Leclerc 19.7 if we had a little bit of pace we'd use it

Max VERSTAPPENCopy. We just don't have the same base as them so don't focus on their base, just stay out of balance.

EngineerOkay, gained half a second Russell last lap, that's good.

EngineerCalyx, how are your tyre splints? Tyre update? The

Alexander ALBONlow speed is just gone But it's fine Honestly, I can't go much faster than this

EngineerOK, understood

EngineerOkay, your pace is mega get back on it and you will be able to race these guys

EngineerTire update please Esteban.

Esteban OCONWell, not fantastic, because of the balance on the rear, but still OK.

EngineerCopy, still gaining on Russell, so we're doing good against that.

EngineerThese

Lewis HAMILTONtyres aren't great.

EngineerCopy that, so Vastappen in the pits now, so let's push hard, just use them up.

EngineerClose on exit close on exit

EngineerOk Carlos, Lando is going to try and pick up the pace. Let's see what he's got. I think you can start using the tyre now.

EngineerSo Lando I just want great pace for a few laps that's what we need.

EngineerIt's a straight race now, Esteban. Daniel is just stopping again.

Nicholas LATIFICause I'm stuck behind Reikon in here

EngineerThat's mode 4 please, mode 4

Nicholas LATIFICopy

EngineerOK Lando, this is the Germany situation, Germany situation, and safety car windows are open.

Lando NORRISCopy that.

EngineerOkay, so we are free fuel so we do not need lift off for fuel But if you think it helps and manage surface temps through corner, I'm happy for you to do a little bit

Charles LECLERCWhat are we doing now? Plan B, Plan A?

EngineerPlan A, Plan A.

EngineerBox, box, box. Do the opposite to Gasly. Break balance for the line.

EngineerOkay Lando so Gasly is the car in front. He is still on old hard tyres. You can bring this tyre in.

Carlos SAINZGot to spill it.

EngineerLaunch map, launch map, launch map.

Carlos SAINZAh

EngineerSo Carlos has put it now.

Lando NORRISCarlos Gasly

Engineeris four seconds in front. We're chasing him down now.

EngineerMAXIMUM PUSH NOW ANTONIO, MAXIMUM PUSH

EngineerOk buddy, now you just need to bring this tyre in. Bring the tyre in.

Carlos SAINZYeah, but Lando has disappeared.

EngineerCarlos, don't worry about Lando now. You've got Gasly just ahead of Lando. Gasly is on 16 lap hold hard.

EngineerAnd only losses to Verstappen other than management are initial breaking, turn 8 and 9.

EngineerSo still matching Albon's pace one tenth slower you were that up

George RUSSELLWhy is the pack empty? We're not recharging, it just keeps on depleting

Carlos SAINZPace in front, Dom.

EngineerPace in front. Come on, Pace. Yeah, let's fight for it. A

Carlos SAINZlot of pulling on the braking.

EngineerOk Pierre, Sainz is 8 behind. He should catch us in around 6-7 laps, but he's got some brake issues at the moment. I'll keep you posted. Update on tyres please, update on tyres when you can.

Pierre GASLYI'll start on some rear brake.

EngineerTire report, please, Esteban.

Esteban OCONSo fine.

Engineerand Lando Albon is the car in front he's looking like he's struggling gap is currently about a 16 and a half 16 and a half

EngineerSo this we think we're fine to the end.

Lewis HAMILTONLet's see if the car comes out with it.

EngineerGasly 2.8, let's go and get him.

Carlos SAINZYeah, Gasly will be easy.

Engineer9 to Bottas, still 4 seconds behind, doing 33.6

Daniel RICCIARDOOK, understood, this is my pace, I'll keep up, status 10

EngineerGood Lapierre, keep us posted on tyres, Sainz 1.5 behind, keep us posted every lap

Pierre GASLYA bit more real deck now

Sergio PEREZAre you falling asleep? Wake up, wake up.

EngineerYes, check your head.

EngineerAnd the kids are all good, Checo, the kids are all good. We're okay to gradually start pushing, but we're happy with where we are at the moment.

Alexander ALBONYeah, I'm trying.

EngineerYeah, understood.

Engineerengine 7 position 2 please engine 7 position 2 so gap ahead to Perez 5

EngineerYeah, I'm not first, so if I'm behind another car, I'm just sliding a lot. OK, keep me posted in 3 air, please. Ricciardo, 2.5 behind, Ocon, 16.

Pierre GASLYI'm losing the traction.

EngineerWe have 5 more laps, can you make it? 5 more laps.

Pierre GASLYYeah I can make it but I don't know how fast.

EngineerAnd Lando Perez possibly with a problem. Let's keep going.

Lando NORRISPace one, my reason to call.

Pierre GASLYGive me all the power!

EngineerCaptain Prez in front, 1.3, if you can get JOS, let's go. He's broken.

Nicholas LATIFIJOS is broken.

Lando NORRISThere's a guy running across the track understood

Engineersafety car deployed safety car deployed. We're staying out. We're staying out

EngineerOK Lewis, so we're going to stay out, stay out, we think this is going to take a long time to clear Are you sure? There'll be two to go when you cross the line So they still have to let lapped gas through And there's no overtaking on the last lap

Lewis HAMILTONWe've got the gap, we should probably take it now

EngineerNo, the gap is now marginal, the gap is marginal So, not going to take the risk

Pierre GASLYSo you know the tires are dead, huh? Copy

Engineerthat. We don't really have any other option now.

EngineerOkay Alex, there are some lap cars and after this lap there's only two laps to go so we don't think that the race is going to restart but let's just stay alert, stay aware. Just stay positive on your delta please.

Lando NORRISThere's a guy running across the track. It's the bravest guy I've ever seen brave

Engineeror stupid

EngineerOK, we've not been given notice that the safety car has come in, we would have had that by now so the final lap will be under the safety car.

Daniel RICCIARDOYeah, there's definitely something. Yeah, we've seen it. Yeah, it was probably with about 20, 20 odd lots to go.

EngineerA possible rear right puncture.

EngineerGood work on PU temps.

Lewis HAMILTONThat was a tough race guys, great job, just

Engineerwasn't as easy as you'd think. No mate, we're with you, we could see it was a tricky one to keep on top of but yeah, beautiful job looking after those rubber.

EngineerWell done Max, you did what you could mate. Yeah, it is what it is. It is what it is. Well done mate, you dragged every bit of performance out of that, they were just that bit quicker than us today, but very very good drive. Yeah, it was a good podium again, after

Max VERSTAPPENtwo races where I didn't go to plan, so also congrats to Alex on beat 3.

EngineerWell, good job Valtteri. Two punctures and a bad start. I'll take P8. Need a special cabinet for your debris collection.

EngineerAnd that's P4. P4. Well done. Scenario 1. Nice.

Lando NORRISFourth and fifth, right?

EngineerNot a bad day. Yeah, man. Fourth and fifth. Great points all for the team. Yeah, good job, everyone. Good day again. Nice Sunday. Especially after yesterday. I think you did an awesome job, guys. So thank you. Yeah, mate. Well done. Whole team did an awesome job. Well done. Well done, Lando. Well done. Very good drive. Solid race. And solid weekend. Let's keep it up. Two more to go. Great result for the team. Well done. Cheers, J-Lo. You're welcome.

George RUSSELLGood morning guys, yep, I think that was a really good race, really good recovery

Engineerfollowing

George RUSSELLthat first start, so a good weekend all round and glad to see you Roman is okay, that was nasty.

EngineerAll right, good management of the tires, Kevin. We just don't have enough pace, but you did well. Looks like Hamilton won from Verstappen, Albon, Norris, Sainz, Gasly, Ricciardo, Bottas, Ocon, and Leclerc was 10th.

Sebastian VETTELAnd thanks for the effort, wasn't easy, and you try your best, thanks for that. Yeah, well obviously the first lap cost us quite a lot, after that the first in the car was really, really poor to drive. Once we changed tyres it was okay, it was like as if the tyres never started to work, chattering in the front, no grip on the rear, yeah. Copy. So.

EngineerThe race is over now, race is over, check the flag.

EngineerAnd speed 10, speed 10

Charles LECLERCYep Well, that's it then

EngineerYour

Kimi RAIKKONENposition already?

EngineerWe are P15 So we still have no info, I guess the safety car will come in Yeah but it's the last lap so what do you expect? Nothing Just cross the line Ok that's it, so Hamilton 1 followed by Verstappen and Albon P15

EngineerOkay nice job P3.

Alexander ALBONYeah thank you guys.

EngineerI

Alexander ALBONthink that was maybe our best start of the year so far so hopefully we can do more of them. Yeah nice one.

EngineerWell done Alex that was a mega job great good drive so good to have you both up there on the podium first time we had a podium here since 2013 I think.

Alexander ALBONYeah thanks Christian.

EngineerEnjoy the rose water up there it's a bit sticky.

Alexander ALBONI'll save you some.

EngineerGood job, Carlos. P5, mate. P5, that is a great recovery from P15. Happy with that?

Carlos SAINZYeah, cheers, guys. I guess it's

Engineera

Carlos SAINZbig day for the team.

EngineerYeah, it's a big score. No points for Racing Point. The Renaults were 7th and 9th, so that's a good day for us in the championship.

Carlos SAINZYeah, good job, everyone.

EngineerOkay, check and flag, check and flag, go in, go in, end of the race, your P14, P14, Hamilton Mourne, head of Verstappen in Alban, Russell P12, Vettel P13, and the new Recon End, Giovinazzi, Magnussen, that was a solid one, mate, with some good overtaking, some good fights, a lot to learn, solid one.

Nicholas LATIFIYep, good job guys, solid race,

Engineermistakes

Nicholas LATIFIfrom my side at the beginning with the overtaking, but I'll learn from it.

EngineerThat was good, that was good, that was a good race, strong one, I still think, we take the mistake and we learn from it, like you said, good job, mate. Remember, try to pick up some rubber, just bring the car back, when you jump out of the car, go to wait yourself, we'll be in the back from it.

EngineerShame we couldn't get a go at Gasly there at the end, P7, Esteban P9.

Daniel RICCIARDOYeah I think obviously we would have had a good crack at Gasly, but didn't have enough for the McLaren, but thanks, thanks anyways guys.

EngineerKeep fighting mate, keep fighting, gain some points on the racing point. Yeah

Daniel RICCIARDOwe'll keep chipping away, is Stroll, is he okay?

EngineerYeah he was fine.

Daniel RICCIARDOOkay cheers.

EngineerOK, there we go, OK, well, P9, Daniel P7, yeah, that was a really tough one.

Esteban OCONYeah, not easy, plenty to review,

Engineernot

Esteban OCONover, not over, no

Engineermore to go. Absolutely mate, absolutely, learn what we can from this one and move on. I think the main thing is Roman is not badly hurt, that's the thing we have to take away.

Esteban OCONExactly, that's

Engineerthe

Esteban OCONmost important.

EngineerI'm P13, P13, and thanks for the effort, it wasn't easy, and you try your best, thanks for that. Yeah,

Sebastian VETTELwell, obviously the first lap cost us quite a lot, after that, the first in, the car was really, really poor to drive, once we changed tyres, it was okay, it was like as if the tyres never started to work, chattering in the front, no grip on the rear, yeah.

EngineerCopy.

Sebastian VETTELSo.

Daniil KVYATP11 is the worst *** position ever. *** sucks.

EngineerOK, checkered flag, checkered flag, P12. It's a good battle. Morning, guys. Yeah,

George RUSSELLI think that was a really good race, really good recovery following that first start. So a good weekend all round. I'm glad to see Roman is OK. That was nasty.

EngineerHow

George RUSSELLwas our pace? It felt all right. I mean, it was very managed. There was definitely chances I could have gone quicker over distinct lengths. But I think for the battles we were having, I think it was really well managed.

EngineerYeah, cover that, good job.

George RUSSELLSorry, what was the run in order? 10, 11? We were 12th, right?

EngineerAffirm. Leclerc 10, Kylian 11, and then yourself 12. Vettel 13, Niclas 14. Yeah, sorry, had them reasonably covered at the end, or majority of the last run.
